Google Is a Calculator

When you can’t be troubled to reach over and pick up the handheld
calculator sitting on your desk, you can use Google as a high-tech web-based
calculator. All you have to do is enter your equation or formula into the
standard Google search box, and then click the Google Search button. The result
of the calculation is displayed on the search results page; it’s that
simple.

You can use the standard algebraic operators to construct your
calculations—+, -, x, and / for addition, subtraction, multiplication, and
division, accordingly. For example, to add 2 plus 3, enter 2 +
3 and press Enter. To divide 10 by 2, enter 10 / 2,
and so on.

And Google’s calculator isn’t limited to basic addition and
multiplication. It can also handle more advanced calculations, trigonometric
functions, inverse trigonometric functions, hyperbolic functions, and
logarithmic functions. Just enter the proper formula into the search box, and
wait for Google to display the answer.
